We have been inspired by this year’s Great British Bake Off to explore some baking related homes currently on the market. We’ve taken a look at some of our current wonderful bakery conversions, and we think you’ll agree they are a little slice of property heaven.
There is something gloriously unique about living in a factory conversion; the building will most likely have a unique history, and developments like these are traditionally situated in large industrial areas, many of which have seen considerable regeneration in recent years. In London, it’s also common to find fabulous warehouse conversions in waterside locations due to the logistics of transporting goods when these buildings were used for their original purpose. Conversions remain a popular choice with buyers and renters as they often benefit from a stunning combination of modern architecture and design, whilst preserving and maintaining original features.
